Did you ever stay up late wondering if you'd been screwed
Or ever really know how much money they're making off of you
Welcome to the club, aye, that's the rub
Your nudged, fudged, nudged, screwed
Did you ever feel confused
Fall victim to their ruse
You know Hitler gassed the Jews
Maybe you should watch the news
Formula, we deplore you
Formula, we abhor you
Formula, we ignore you
We were sent here to destroy you
We won't have to wait too long
Lots of people making bombs, CD-ROMS, fertilizer bombs, yeah
Totally abused you
You wonder why our lives are crummy, you won't give us any money
Without us who would you jack, to fill up your bulgin sack
But your actions, they shall foment, vengeance waiting for the moment
And though I spent years as your slave, one day I'll piss on your grave
Formula, set our own pace
Formula, we are a race
Formula, we'll smash your face!
Formula, your machine
Formula, I find obscene
Formula, know what I mean
You've reduced something to nothing
You really fucking think you're something
Hold on baby, time is coming
Nudged!
